Support from Namibian Government

On February 15th, 2017, the Desert Lion Energy (DLE) management team had the opportunity to meet with His Excellency, Dr. Sam S. Nujoma, affectionately known as the Founding Father of Namibia. His Excellency was responsible for leading Namibia into independence and served as the first President from 1990 to 2005.

With a doctorate in geology, His Excellency has consistently supported the mining industry in Namibia. He continues to do so through his foundation, The Sam Nujoma Foundation, by providing educational support for aspiring geologists and engineers.

During the meeting, the DLE team had the opportunity to discuss the work completed to date and plans to develop the world class Desert Lion Energy Lithium project. His Excellency expressed strong support and warmly welcomed the DLE team to Namibia.
